[The Athletic | Football @TheAthleticFC]

Nigel Farage’s visit to Ipswich Town this week has sparked a major backlash.

Fans have accused the club of allowing itself to be used for political purposes, but there is also internal dissent at the club’s handling of the affair.

The Athletic can now reveal that the club’s depiction of the visit, as presented to both staff and media, is being heavily disputed.

This is the inside story of a chaotic 72 hours.

[Ipswich Fans Supporting Foodbanks @ITFC_FSF]

People in Ipswich are relying on foodbanks to survive.

Meanwhile, we see PR for Nigel Farage and a party claiming people can live on 30p meals.

“No official involvement" from @IpswichTown is no excuse.

Football should stand with its community, not platform division.

Politics and football don’t mix? Tell that to Ipswich’s players, who are not happy about Farage’s visit. What a mess, and many tough questions still to answer: https://t.co/4vM4y5JArC #ITFC

What were Ipswich thinking? 🤯

[NHS Million @NHSMillion]

Tory MPs, lords and even Downing Street advisers have been accepting money from private healthcare firms as the NHS is on its knees

No wonder no one in the Government seems committed to ending the NHS crisis

RT if you think everyone should be aware

If everyone who has been grateful for the NHS over the past 75 years followed and retweeted we’d reach a million by midnight

Please take just two seconds to show you care

Tragic news

The latest @CornwallInsight prediction, based on Ofgem's new methodology, is an 81% price cap rise in Oct (taking typical bill to £3,582/yr) and a further 19% in Jan (so £4,266/yr)

Action & planning is needed now. The zombie govt needs wake up sooner than 5 Sept...
